Suggestions regarding my petition to get C-PTSD in the DSM-5?

Mickayla WatermanMember

Hi, my name is Mickayla and I created the petition found here - https://www.change.org/properd...meanspropertreatment

My goal is garner public support for this, as in the past the APA has brushed off the diagnosis. Now that the ICD-11 is including it, most likely it will be added into the next edition of the DSM-5 (DSM-5.1?). I want the extra security of this petition to show that the general public understands and wants it to be included as well. I have the C-PTSD foundation who signed my petition, and have been welcomed by ACEs Connection leadership to share in these forums, and on a post.

I was wondering what advice could be given to me when I send these signatures along, or if I should be contacting any other organizations or people to speak about my petition?

Thank you for your help and advice,
Mickayla
